That was not smart base running by Podany up 2-0. 

 

[ellitor 33,093]

Having technical difficulties. Not sure what happened with the 1st batter or 2.

[ellitor 33,093]

Draper infield single.

[jared52 4,354]

THAT is Draper's game. Smash the ball into the ground, beat it out. That was to the pitcher. Wow.

Podany lined one to the gap, but the RF cut it off. Podany tried to take 2nd but was gunned down.

What did McCrackin do at the plate?

What did McCrackin & Podany do at the plate?

Oh, I didn't see McCrackin myself... sorry. Thought Podany was the first batter.

[ellitor 33,093]

Coop singles to left. Draper gets to 3rd. Coop goes to 2nd on the throw in towards 3rd.

[jared52 4,354]

Coop finally gets something to hit and takes her sand wedge and drop one right on the LF line with some back spin. 

Big, big opportunity for Wallace here.

[jared52 4,354]

5 feet short of a HR for Wallace, that would have been YUGE.

McCrackin was pinch hit for by Perry who struck out.

[ellitor 33,093]

Wallace flies out to deep right to end the inning. @jared52 was right on Podany. Her mistake not only cost 1 run. It cost 2 as Wallasce's fly out would have been a sac fly.

Is it my imagination or is this field crap?!

AU up 2-0 in the bottom of the 6th.

If AU was trying to make something happen, I could excuse it. The RF had to make a perfect throw. AU would have been fine with a single there, regardless of what happened next.

There aren't a ton of great fields in Mexico. 

[jared52 4,354]

Kind of hoping AU gets someone in the pen soon. Martin has pitched well, but all her strikes are getting up in the zone. OU can make her pay for that soon.

[au75 75]

field is not good

[ellitor 33,093]

Ground out to Fagan. 1 down. OU's Ace going to warm up in the pen.

[jared52 4,354]

I don't think Coop would have gotten her on that play anyway. She was way up the line by the time the ball was played.

[ellitor 33,093]

OU bunt single. 1 on 1 out.
